Survival of tumor cells after proton irradiation with ultra-high dose rates

BACKGROUND: Laser acceleration of protons and heavy ions may in the future be used in radiation therapy. Laser-driven particle beams are pulsed and ultra high dose rates of >10(9 )Gy s(-1)may be achieved. Here we compare the radiobiological effects of pulsed and continuous proton beams. METHODS:...
